Forecasts

McGowan's Pass (15/8), Goobinator (2/1), Calva D'Auge (6/1), Faire Part Sivola (15/2), Hasankey (10/1), Saint Freule (12/1), Pammi (22/1)

The vote goes to MCGOWAN'S PASS, who made it 2-2 over hurdles here whe landing a C&D handicap on his reappearance last season. He lost little caste in defeat when chasing home a rapidly progressive rival off this mark at Wetherby on his latest start in March. Calva d'Auge is in good hands and may have more races in him, but this opening mark looks tough and Goobinator is feared most.
